    “It’s not really a matter of whether or not it makes sense Tina because, ultimately, the only person that it needed to make sense to was you.  You were the person that was driving this bus and if it made sense to you to leave in the middle of the night, without a word spoken to me, then it is not really up to me to question it.”

     

    Tina said nothing as she could tell that Bette was not done sharing all of her thoughts.

     

    “But I gotta tell you Tina, you ripped my heart out in leaving me the way that you did” she said, voice beginning to shake with emotion,  “regardless of the reason for doing so.”

     

    Tina watched Bette struggle with her words and knew that she was reliving the emotion that she had felt during that time and even though she had not been around to witness Bette’s pain then, knew she might as well have been because it was exactly what she was seeing right now.

     

    “And you know what probably hurts more than waking up to find out that you had left me?” Bette asked, tears now streaming down her face.

     

    Tina just shook her head no not trusting her own voice to answer Bette.

     

    “The fact that you wouldn’t see me” she cried, trying to get the words out as clearly as possible but her tears making that effort difficult.

     

    “I came to talk to you Tina, in New York, and you wouldn’t even see me” she said in astonishment as she looked up at Tina, seeing tears falling down her face as well.

     

    Tina said nothing, just watched Bette, the pain in her eyes as fresh as the day that it had happened.

     

    “Why” she whispered as she finally looked Tina in the eye.  “Why Tina?” she pleaded.  “Why wouldn’t you at least see me?  Did you hate me that much, Tina?  Is that what this was all about?  You hated me so much that you couldn’t even come tell me in person to fuck off, you had to send your assistant to do so?” she cried, finally looking away, no longer able to handle the pain coming from Tina’s eyes as well.

    3. Oh my God I have stayed at Shudders on the Beach. It’s a magical place, one that you can met a lot of stars in I might add. THe beds are like sinking into a cloud and they have CDs in the rooms along with incense of lavender. I think you need to have Tina figure out where she is and make an unannounced visit. Thanks it’s awesome this installment.

    4. i’m so in love with this story…so many emotions, so intense and simple and beautifully written…i’ll take any amount of pages from you…i wonder what bette meant by her last words…absolutely love it

    5. I agree with the comments above. I love this story. It is amazing. It is very captivating too. I just want to keep reading and reading. Looking forward to the next chaper.

    7. Excellent addition and I don’t mind the length of it either! LOL….Thanks for the stroy – whenever I log in I always look for your name to see if I’m going ot have a good day! LMAO

    8. Beautiful chapter! This will keep me going for the few days I have to be out of town without access to the site. Hope you’ll have posted again by the time I return! Thanks so much for this story.

    9. I don’t think there are enough words to describe how perfect this chapter is. Shutters is such an excellent choice, it is of course exactly where Bette would go. :) But I second Jwet’s suggestion, Tina should most definitely find her there. ;) Thank you again for this amazing story.

    13. Bette’s just afraid to love again, or to be more precise, to release her repressive love for Tina to Tina again. Tina needs to find her and let her know it’s fate and they are meant together.

    14. WOW – would you please email this to Laurel and Jennifer so they can read this scene for Ilene and get this onto the airwaves. This is magnificent you are such a powerful writer – thank you – I love the length of your stories they are full and rich.

    16. Fantastic. Bette needs to let Shelly know where she is, who intern needs to let Tina know, and then Tina needs to go find Bette, what better place to put it all back together that out at the beach.

    18. Sooo worth the wait. And I would like to reiterate the sentiment expressed by Steph8373 (whose stories also rock!) … there aren’t enough words to effectively describe how well you are articulating every aspect of your beautiful story. Particularly the gravity of emotion each is experiencing as they sort through the good, the bad, and the indifferent parts of their relationship and its untimely demise. After finishing I was wishing it had been 60 pages instead of six … hint, hint ;) PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE … post again soon … and if you can’t, no biggy, I’m sure the next one will be equally worth the wait.

    19. WOW just logged on and seen you had posted was like a late christmas present,I feel like I am repeating myself but that was awesome, beautiful, amazing soo soo good loved, and the length was just just like excellent.

    23. Oh MY GOD, that was wonderful, and thank you so much for posting it all in one chapter!!! I, personally, love the long chapter, and look forward to the follow up. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    28. Skip, don’t ever apologize for one of your chapters being ‘so long’, I’d take six pages any time you post.This was such an a incredible chapter, you so perfectly captured Bette’s disparate emotions and her desperation to understand what Tina’s motivations were for leaving. Tina’s explanation may have been simple to her, but to Bette she is still struggling with the fact that it could be that simple in truth. She trusted Tina once, to trust what she is saying and take it at face value leaves her reluctant – her nescience of their connection and the way Tina was feeling the first time makes her wary of history repeating itself, I’m sure.I loved the way you illustrated Bette’s need for distance between her and Tina. She has been isolated from her for six months, seeking comfort in that same isolation by going away to Shutters seemed appropriate. Lovely, lovely chapter.

    29. skip, i’ve been waiting and waiting and waiting (along with your other readers)for this chapter! Thank you, love the length of this chapter, trust me, every word is devoured! LOL! How long is Bette going to process what Tina has said? Every road is rocky, but all leads back to Tina, yes? Now I can’t even remember the name of that lady Bette’s supposed to be seeing…selective memory in play. LOVE your spin on Bette and Tina. Please don’t make us wait too long for another lengthy chapter!

    30. You’re a master! …”Bette took a deep breath and peered out, suddenly wishing that she was a part of whatever was taking place outside of this house. ” … I could really relate to this. Been there, done that.

    31. So loved this story. The intensity of emotions shared by both B & T. The freedom of emotion shared it was beautiful, sad, simple, and promising. The length was not a problem…your writing is simply wonderful. I wonder if Tina will know where to find Bette and go after her. Loved it! Please, by all means do continue.

    32. Wow! Anyone could knock me over with just a breath right now. That chapter was so filled with emotion. So incredibly well written. The dialogue is honest beyond belief and well mindblowingly real – raw. I feel as though you’ve shown me the depths of Tina’s soul. The depths of their love. I need air. This wall of emotion from Tina is tumbling over Bette and there is no way for Bette to see deal with it all at once. She must take the pieces one by one and rebuild a foundation – not a wall.

    34. Skip…..this chapter was just great! Their raw emotion was so palpable. Your stories are wonderful, whether or not they are 6 pages in length or 6 lines long. You are such a gifted writer. Looking forward to your next update. Have a great weekend.

    35. Skip, no apologies needed for the length of any chapter. 6 pages is a real treat. Be it long or short, we’d gladly accept. Or perhaps this is a teaser of that 20 page chapter you have?! LOL. This chapter was very emotional. You’ve written the emotions pouring from both women so well, so real. For all her wanting to understand or know the reason of Tina leaving her, Bette feels suffocated by Tina’s admission/confession in such a short time. Even though she needs the space and distance now, I feel a sliver of hope from her last thought that she doesn’t know what to do with Tina, “at least not yet”. She is not shutting Tina out immediately, which is good. She needs time to process what’s been said, what it all means now that she knows Tina’s intent. Now, Tina has to keep at it and make Bette see the light…hint hint. Thanks for the post and looking forward to more.

    38. Good God woman, that was incredible. When you detail a conversation, you detail a conversation. My heart rate is still elevated…your writing is just that inspiring.

    40. A very powerful chapter and huge step forward for these two. Tina should consider it a huge victory that Bette came and listened and heard her.You did a beautiful job of capturing the intensity between these two as well as Bette’s conflicting emotions. Brava, Skipton!

    41. Emotional and moving. I think Bette needs to stand her ground and not give in as quickly as the ‘old Bette’ might have. They both need to stand alone and come together as equals once again.I love this story, please post again soon.

    43. Emotional post, thanks. I still don’t get why Tina “divorced” Bette. It seems she always planned to return. I haven’t heard Tina say I’m sorry, if for no other reason than she hurt Bette by leaving and refusing to see her. Her reasons may have been justified, but she’s glancing over Bette’s pain.

    46. Skip, I just caught up on the last 4 chapters; outstanding as always. I agree with everyone else that suggested that Tina needs to show up at Shutters, go to Bette’s room and SHOW her that she is here to stay and is determined to have her wife back!! Post again soon.

    48. i was really hoping there’s 20 pages of this. LOL..too much to ask? Bette is too afraid to lose Tina again..and those explanation is too much to take in juz in one night.This chapter is so cool…post soon..ca’t wait for the next chapter!!

    49. skip that was beyond. speechless. im with jwet. please have her figure it out. length was great. never apologize, can never get enough. thank you is not enough.
